Whatever happens on 23 June, it won’t be the i wot won it.

Some media like the sound of their own voice before a big vote, trying to claim afterwards that they swung the result.

Here at i we have a rather shocking opinion: the public are capable of making up their own minds.

Our job at i is to give you the facts, to try to provide impartial coverage that might help you to make your decision – alongside a mix of thought-provoking voices from across the debate, of course.

That’s why today’s edition is wrapped in a You Decide campaign cover – the first in a series.

Turned off by the hysteria

A significant minority of voters are still undecided. Many people (especially undecideds and the young) are fed up with coverage of the campaign; turned off by the hysteria from politicians and press.

When we launched i in 2010, we tried to create a very different sort of newspaper, led by its readers. Your message to us has always been clear: news, not spin.

At last year’s general election, every national newspaper endorsed a political party, except i. In Scotland’s independence referendum two years ago, i won plaudits for refusing to push an agenda in its news coverage.

Britain’s future won’t be decided by editors, media owners, big business or hysterical politicians – but by you.
